Existence and uniqueness conjecture for submanifolds of nearly Kähler
Existence and uniqueness conjecture for submanifolds of nearly Kähler
Let be an -dimensional simply connected Riemannian manifold with , and let be a Riemannian vector bundle of rank over , equipped with a metric-compatible connection and curvature tensor . Let be smooth and symmetric, and define for each section of by
Assume that satisfy the Gauss, Codazzi and Ricci equations for the nearly Kähler , and that
Existence and uniqueness conjecture. There exists an isometric immersion and a vector bundle isometry such that and . Moreover, if are isometric immersions and there is a vector bundle isometry satisfying and , then the immersions differ by an ambient isometry whose differential restricts to on the normal bundle. The fundamental equations together with the additional equation above provide existence and uniqueness in all examples considered, but a general result has not been proved; this conjecture would establish a general fundamental theorem for submanifolds of nearly Kähler .
